Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid and medication used to treat seizures in tuberous sclerosis complex, Lennox-Gastaut and Dravet syndrome.[3][13][2] It is used together with clobazam.[3] It is taken by mouth.[3] Evidence is insufficient to support its use for anxiety, psychosis, or pain as of 2019.[14][15]

Common side effects include agitation, diarrhea, tiredness, trouble sleeping, and rash.[3] Other side effects may include liver problems and suicide.[5] Use in pregnancy may harm the baby.[5] Its mechanism of action is not entirely clear.[6] It does not have the same psychoactive properties as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).[16]

Cannabidiol was discovered in 1940.[2] It was approved for medical use in the United States in 2018 and Europe in 2019.[5][6] In the United States 300 ml of 100 mg/ml solution costs about 4,600 USD as of 2021.[17] It made from the Cannabis sativa plant.[16] Some people use it in the form of CBD oil, which general contains low levels of THC.[15]

Medical uses

Epilepsy

In the United States, the FDA has approved only one brand of cannabidiol called "Epidiolex" for the treatment of seizures associated with Dravet syndrome, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, or tuberous sclerosis complex in people one year of age and older.[18][5][19][20][21] While treatment is generally well tolerated, it is associated with minor side effects, such as gastrointestinal upset, decreased appetite, lethargy, sleepiness and poor sleep quality.[19][20][21]

In the European Union, cannabidiol (Epidyolex) is approved for use as add-on therapy of seizures associated with Lennox Gastaut syndrome or Dravet syndrome, in conjunction with clobazam, for people two years of age and older.[6] In 2020, the label for the US was expanded to include seizures associated with tuberous sclerosis complex.[22][18]

Other uses

Research on other uses includes several neurological disorders, but the evidence is insufficient to support such use.[12][14][15][23][24][25][26] In October 2019, the FDA issued an advisory warning that the effects of CBD during pregnancy or breastfeeding are unknown, indicating that the safety, doses, interactions with other drugs or foods, and side effects of CBD are not defined, and may pose a risk to the mother and infant.[27]

Many claims are made for the benefit of cannabidiol that are not backed by sound evidence. Some claims, such as treatment of cancer, are pseudoscience.[28]

It is under preliminary research for its possible anti-anxiety and anti-psychotic effects.[14][15][29]

Dosage

It is generally started at a dose of 5mg/kg a day and than increased to 10 mg/kg a day.[13] The maximum dose is 20 mg/kg per day.[13]

Side effects

Research indicates that cannabidiol may reduce adverse effects of THC, particularly those causing intoxication and sedation, but only at high doses.[30] Safety studies of cannabidiol showed it is well tolerated, but may cause tiredness, diarrhea, or changes in appetite as common adverse effects.[31] Epidiolex documentation lists sleepiness, insomnia and poor quality sleep, decreased appetite, diarrhea, and fatigue.[5][32]

Cannabidiol does not appear to have intoxicating effects[33] (i.e., "getting high") such as those caused by ∆9-THC in Cannabis.

Various strains of "medical cannabis" are found to have a significant variation in the ratios of CBD-to-THC and are known to contain other non-psychotropic cannabinoids.[34]

Interactions

Laboratory evidence indicated that cannabidiol may reduce THC clearance, increasing plasma concentrations which may raise THC availability to receptors and enhance its effect in a dose-dependent manner.[35][36] In vitro, cannabidiol inhibited the activity of voltage-dependent sodium and potassium channels, which may affect neural activity.[37] A recent study using X-ray crystallography showed that CBD binds inside the sodium channel pore at a novel site at the interface of the fenestrations and the central hydrophobic cavity of the channel. Binding at this site blocks the transmembrane-spanning sodium ion translocation pathway, providing a molecular mechanism for channel inhibition, which could contribute to a reduced excitability.[38] A small clinical trial reported that CBD partially inhibited the CYP2C-catalyzed hydroxylation of THC to 11-OH-THC.[39] Little is known about potential drug interactions, but CBD mediates a decrease in clobazam metabolism.[40]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Cannabidiol has low affinity for the cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors,[41][42] although it can act as an antagonist of CB1/CB2 agonists despite this low affinity.[42] Cannabidiol may be an antagonist of GPR55, a G protein-coupled receptor and putative cannabinoid receptor that is expressed in the caudate nucleus and putamen in the brain.[43][44] It also may act as an inverse agonist of GPR3, GPR6, and GPR12.[45] CBD has been shown to act as a serotonin 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist.[46] At higher concentrations, CBD acts as an inverse agonist of 5-HT1A receptors.[47] It is an allosteric modulator of the μ- and δ-opioid receptors as well.[48] The pharmacological effects of CBD may involve PPARγ agonism, inhibition of voltage-gated cation channels, and intracellular calcium release.[16]

Pharmacokinetics

The oral bioavailability of cannabidiol is approximately 6% in humans, while its bioavailability via inhalation is 11 to 45% (mean 31%).[10][11] The elimination half-life of CBD is 18–32 hours.[12] Cannabidiol is metabolized in the liver as well as in the intestines by the cytochrome P450 enzymes CYP2B6, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2J2, and CYP3A4, and by the isoenzymes UGT1A7, UGT1A9, and UGT2B7,[49][50][51][5] forming a variety of metabolites such as 7-hydroxycannabidiol as well as the 6α- and 6β-hydroxy isomers and derivatives hydroxylated on the alkyl side chain, followed by glucuronidation.[52] CYP3A4 facilitates decarbonylation of CBD to liberate carbon monoxide, a bioactive gasotransmitter and pharmaceutical candidate.[53] CBD may have a wide margin in dosing.[25]

Medical preparations

Nabiximols (brand name Sativex), an oromucosal spray made of a complex botanical mixture containing cannabidiol (CBD), delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and additional cannabinoid and non-cannabinoid constituents from cannabis sativa plants, was approved by Health Canada in 2005 to treat central neuropathic pain in multiple sclerosis, and in 2007 for cancer-related pain.[54] In New Zealand, Sativex is "approved for use as an add-on treatment for symptom improvement in people with moderate to severe spasticity due to multiple sclerosis who have not responded adequately to other anti-spasticity medication."[55]

Epidiolex is an orally administered cannabidiol solution. It was approved in 2018 by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of two rare forms of childhood epilepsy, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome,[19] and seizures associated with tuberous sclerosis complex.[18] In the US, it is approved in these indications for patients one year of age and older.

Chemistry

At room temperature, cannabidiol is a colorless crystalline solid.[56] In strongly basic media and the presence of air, it is oxidized to a quinone.[57] Under acidic conditions it cyclizes to THC,[58] which also occurs during pyrolysis,[59] but not during combustion (smoking).[60] The synthesis of cannabidiol has been accomplished by several research groups.[61][62][63]

Biosynthesis

Cannabidiol and THC biosynthesis[65]

Cannabis produces CBD-carboxylic acid through the same metabolic pathway as THC, until the next to last step, where CBDA synthase performs catalysis instead of THCA synthase.[66]

Pyrolysis

In the typical operating temperature range of e-cigarettes (250–400 °C), 25–52% of CBD is transformed into other chemical substances: Δ9-THC, Δ8-THC, cannabinol and cannabichromene as predominant pyrolysates. From a chemical point of view, CBD in e-cigarettes can be considered as a precursor of THC.[67]

History

Efforts to isolate the active ingredients in cannabis were made in the 19th century.[68] Cannabidiol was studied in 1940 from Minnesota wild hemp[68] and Egyptian Cannabis indica resin.[69][70] The chemical formula of CBD was proposed from a method for isolating it from wild hemp.[68] Its structure and stereochemistry were determined in 1963.[71]

Plant breeding

Selective breeding of cannabis plants has expanded and diversified as commercial and therapeutic markets develop.[72] Some growers in the US succeeded in lowering the proportion of CBD-to-THC to accommodate customers who preferred varietals that were more mind-altering due to the higher THC and lower CBD content.[73] In the US, hemp is classified by the federal government as cannabis containing no more than 0.3% THC by dry weight. This classification was established in the 2018 Farm Bill and was refined to include hemp-sourced extracts, cannabinoids, and derivatives in the definition of hemp.[74]

Society and culture

"Cannabidiol" is the generic name of the drug and its INN.[75]

Legal status

Australia

Prescription medicine (Schedule 4) for therapeutic use containing two percent (2.0%) or less of other cannabinoids commonly found in cannabis (such as ∆9-THC). A Schedule 4 drug under the SUSMP is a Prescription Only Medicine, or Prescription Animal Remedy – Substances, the use or supply of which should be by or on the order of persons permitted by State or Territory legislation to prescribe and should be available from a pharmacist on prescription.[76]

In June 2020, the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) published a consultation on a proposal to pave the way to make "low dose" CBD available to consumer/patients via pharmacists only through moving products from Schedule 4 to 3.[77]  Any products sold would need to have their safety, quality and efficacy pre-assessed by the TGA and be formally approved for sale (details to be outlined by TGA). They would be made available to over 18s only, with the maximum daily dose of 60 mg/day, up to 2% THC finished product allowed, 30-day maximum supply, plant-derived or synthetic. This proposal is based on an initial literature review on the safety of low dose CBD published by the TGA in April 2020.[78] Epidyolex was approved, for the adjunctive therapy of seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome or with Dravet syndrome, on 18 September 2020, and added to the ARTG on 21 September 2020.[4][79]

Bulgaria

In 2020, Bulgaria became the first country in the European Union to allow retail sales of food products and supplements containing CBD, despite the ongoing discussion within the EU about the classification of CBD as a novel food.[80] But there exists a legal gap because of the lack of a legally-permissible minimum amount of THC in the products containing cannabinoids.[81]

Canada

In October 2018, cannabidiol became legal for recreational and medical use by the federal Cannabis Act.[82][83][84] As of August 2019, CBD products in Canada could only be sold by authorized retailers or federally licensed medical companies, limiting their access to the general public.[85] The Canadian government states that CBD products "are subject to all of the rules and requirements that apply to cannabis under the Cannabis Act and its regulations."[82] It requires "a processing licence to manufacture products containing CBD for sale, no matter what the source of the CBD is, and that CBD and products containing CBD, such as cannabis oil, may only be sold by an authorized retailer or licensed seller of medical CBD."[82] Edible CBD products were scheduled to be permitted for sale in Canada on October 17, 2019 for human consumption.[82]

As of August 2020, it is still illegal to carry cannabis and cannabis-derived products (including products containing CBD) across the Canadian border. If one carries any amount of cannabis for any purpose (including medical), it needs to be declared to the Canada Border Services Agency. Not declaring it is a serious criminal offence.[86]

European Union

In 2019, the European Commission announced that CBD and other cannabinoids would be classified as "novel foods",[87] meaning that CBD products would require authorization under the EU Novel Food Regulation stating that because "this product was not used as a food or food ingredient before May 15, 1997, before it may be placed on the market in the EU as a food or food ingredient, a safety assessment under the Novel Food Regulation is required."[88] The recommendation – applying to CBD extracts, synthesized CBD, and all CBD products, including CBD oil – was scheduled for a final ruling by the European Commission in March 2019.[87] If approved, manufacturers of CBD products would be required to conduct safety tests and prove safe consumption, indicating that CBD products would not be eligible for legal commerce until at least 2021.[87] In December 2020, the European Commission concluded that CBD should not be considered as drug and can be qualified as food.[89]

Cannabidiol is listed in the EU Cosmetics Ingredient Database (CosIng).[90] However, the listing of an ingredient, assigned with an INCI name, in CosIng does not mean it is to be used in cosmetic products or is approved for such use.[90]

Several industrial hemp varieties can be legally cultivated in Western Europe. A variety such as "Fedora 17" has a cannabinoid profile consistently around 1%, with THC less than 0.3%.[91]

New Zealand

In 2017, the government made changes to the regulations so that restrictions would be removed, which meant a doctor was able to prescribe cannabidiol to patients.[92]

The passing of the Misuse of Drugs (Medicinal Cannabis) Amendment Act in December 2018 means cannabidiol is no longer a controlled drug in New Zealand, but is a prescription medicine under the Medicines Act, with the restriction that "the tetrahydrocannabinols (THCs) and specified substances within the product must not exceed 2 percent of the total CBD, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other specified substances.".[93]

Russia

According to a document received in response to an appeal to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, measures of state control in the Russian Federation regarding CBD have not been established. However, there is also a response from the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation indicating that CBD can be considered as an isomer of restricted THC. But in this case, the THC isomer is also, for example, progesterone, which is freely sold in pharmacies.[94] On February 17, 2020, the deputy of the Moscow City Duma Darya Besedina sent an official request to the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin with a request to eliminate that legal ambiguity by publishing official explanations and, if necessary, making required changes in the corresponding government decree.[95]

Sweden

Cannabidiol is classified as a medical product in Sweden.[96] However, in July 2019, Supreme Court of Sweden ruled that CBD oil with any concentration of THC falls under the narcotic control laws.[97]

Switzerland

While THC remains illegal, cannabidiol is not subject to the Swiss Narcotic Acts because this substance does not produce a comparable psychoactive effect.[98] Cannabis products containing less than 1% THC can be sold and purchased legally.[99][100]

Ukraine

On 7 April 2021 the Ukrainian government legalised use of isolated cannabidiol. Additionally, it approved Nabiximols, a cannabidiol-containing drug, for medical use.[101]

United Kingdom

Cannabidiol, in an oral-mucosal spray formulation combined with Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, is a product available (by prescription only prior to 2017) for the relief of severe spasticity due to multiple sclerosis (where other anti-spasmodics have not been effective).[102]

Until 2017, products containing cannabidiol marketed for medical purposes were classed as medicines by the UK regulatory body, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), and could not be marketed without regulatory approval for the medical claims.[103][104] As of 2018, cannabis oil is legal to possess, buy, and sell in the UK, providing the product does not contain more than 1 milligram of THC and is not advertised as providing a medicinal benefit.[105]

In January 2019, the UK Food Standards Agency indicated it would regard CBD products, including CBD oil, as a novel food having no history of use before May 1997, and stated that such products must have authorisation and proven safety before being marketed.[87][106] The deadline for companies with existing products to submit a full and validated novel foods application with the FSA is 31 March 2021; failure to do so before this date will exclude those companies from selling CBD.[107] New products containing CBD after this deadline will require a fully approved application.[108]

United Nations

Cannabidiol is not scheduled under the Convention on Psychotropic Substances or any other UN drug treaties.[109] In 2018, the World Health Organization recommended that CBD remain unscheduled.[110][111]

United States

While the 2018 United States Farm Bill removed hemp and hemp extracts (including CBD) from the Controlled Substances Act, the marketing and sale of CBD formulations for medical use or as an ingredient in dietary supplements or manufactured foods remains illegal under FDA regulation, as of 2021.[112][113]

As of 2021, cannabidiol extracted from marijuana remains a Schedule I Controlled Substance,[72][114][115] and is not approved as a prescription drug or dietary supplement or allowed for interstate commerce in the United States.[116] CBD derived from hemp (with 0.3% THC or lower) is legal to sell as a cosmetics ingredient or for other purposes not regulated by the FDA, but cannot be sold under federal law as an ingredient in food, dietary supplement, or animal feed.[72][117] It is a common misconception that the legal ability to sell hemp (which may contain CBD), and hemp extracts and derivatives (including CBD), makes CBD legal for sale as a supplement or medicine.[117][118]

In September 2018, following its approval by the FDA for rare types of childhood epilepsy,[19] the GW Pharmaceuticals drug Epidiolex was rescheduled (by the Drug Enforcement Administration) as a Schedule V drug to allow for its prescription use.[119] Epidiolex still requires rescheduling in some states before it can be prescribed in those states.[120][121]

In 2013, a CNN program that featured Charlotte's Web cannabis brought increased attention to the use of CBD in the treatment of seizure disorders.[122][123] Since then, 16 states have passed laws to allow the use of CBD products with a physician's recommendation (instead of a prescription) for treatment of certain medical conditions.[124] This is in addition to the 30 states that have passed comprehensive medical cannabis laws, which allow for the use of cannabis products with no restrictions on THC content.[124] Of these 30 states, eight have legalized the use and sale of cannabis products without requirement for a physician's recommendation.[124] As of October 2020, CBD was not an FDA-approved drug eligible for interstate commerce,[72] and the FDA encouraged manufacturers to follow procedures for drug approval.[125]

Federal illegality has made it difficult historically to conduct research on CBD.[126] Cannabidiol is currently the subject of an FDA investigational new drug evaluation, and is not considered legal as a dietary supplement or food ingredient, as of October 2020.[72][127] CBD is openly sold in head shops and health food stores in some states where such sales have not been explicitly legalized.[128]

State and local governments may also regulate cannabidiol. For example, the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources issued a rule in June 2019 aligning state CBD regulations with FDA regulations. This means that although recreational marijuana is legal in the state, CBD cannot legally be sold in food or as a dietary supplement under state law.[129]

Health concerns

In November 2019, the FDA issued concerns about the safety of cannabidiol, stating that CBD use has potential to cause liver injury, interfere with the mechanisms of prescription drugs, produce gastrointestinal disorders, or affect alertness and mood.[116] In October 2020, the FDA updated its safety concerns about CBD,[72] acknowledging the unknown effects of protracted use, how it affects the developing brain, fetus or infants during breastfeeding, whether it interacts with dietary supplements or prescription drugs, whether male fertility is affected, and its possible side effects, such as drowsiness.[130]

In February 2020, the UK FSA advised vulnerable people, such as pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and those already taking medication for other medical concerns not to take CBD. The FSA further recommended that healthy adults should not consume more than 70 mg CBD per day.[107]

Mislabeling and poisoning

Studies conducted by the FDA from 2014 through 2019 have determined that a majority of CBD products are not accurately labeled with the amount of CBD they contain.[131] For example, a 2017 analysis of cannabidiol content in oil, tincture, or liquid vape products purchased online in the United States showed that 69% were mislabeled, with 43% having higher and 26% having lower content than stated on product labels.[132][133]

In 2020, the FDA conducted a study of 147 CBD products and found that half contained THC.[131][134]

As of September 2019, 1,085 people contacted US poison control centers about CBD-induced illnesses, doubling the number of cases over the 2018 rate and increasing by 9 times the case numbers of 2017.[135] Of cases reported in 2019, more than 33% received medical attention and 46 people were admitted to a hospital intensive care unit, possibly due to exposure to other products, or drug interactions with CBD.[133]

2018 Farm Bill and hemp

The 2014 Farm Bill[136] legalized the sale of "non-viable hemp material" grown within states participating in the Hemp Pilot Program which defined hemp as cannabis containing less than 0.3% of THC.[137] The 2018 United States Farm Bill removed the hemp plant and all "derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, whether growing or not, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis," including CBD, from the Controlled Substances Act, making them legal to manufacture in the United States.[112][138][139] The FDA retains regulatory authority over hemp-derived CBD,[118] while the DEA is not involved in the regulation of legally-compliant hemp and hemp products.[140] The 2018 Farm Bill requires that research and development of CBD for a therapeutic purpose would have to be conducted under notification and reporting to the FDA.[118][130] In the United States, hemp-derived CBD is legal to sell for industrial purposes or as a cosmetics ingredient, but under FDA regulation it cannot be marketed for medical use or as an ingredient in food, dietary supplements, or animal feed.[72]

FDA warning

From 2015 to December 2020, the FDA issued dozens of warning letters to American manufacturers of CBD products for false advertising and illegal interstate marketing of CBD as an unapproved drug to treat diseases, such as cancer, osteoarthritis, symptoms of opioid withdrawal, Alzheimer's disease, and pet disorders.[141][142] The FDA said that the letters were issued to enforce action against companies that were deceiving consumers by marketing illegal products for which there was insufficient evidence of safety and efficacy to treat diseases.[141] In July 2019, the FDA stated: "Selling unapproved products with unsubstantiated therapeutic claims — such as claims that CBD products can treat serious diseases and conditions — can put patients and consumers at risk by leading them to put off important medical care. Additionally, there are many unanswered questions about the science, safety, effectiveness and quality of unapproved products containing CBD."[141]

In December 2020, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) initiated a law enforcement crackdown on American companies marketing CBD products as unapproved drugs.[143][144] The warning also applied to hemp CBD capsules and oil that were being marketed illegally while not adhering to the federal definition of a dietary supplement.[144]

Foods

Food and beverage products containing cannabidiol were widely marketed in the United States as early as 2017.[145] Hemp seed ingredients which do not naturally contain THC or CBD (but which may be contaminated with trace amounts on the outside during harvesting) were declared by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as Generally recognized as safe (GRAS) in December 2018. CBD itself has not been declared GRAS, and under US federal law is illegal to sell as a food, dietary supplement, or animal feed.[72] State laws vary considerably as non-medical cannabis and derived products have been legalized in some jurisdictions in the 2010s.

Similar to energy drinks and protein bars which may contain vitamin or herbal additives, food and beverage items can be infused with CBD as an alternative means of ingesting the substance.[146] In the United States, numerous products are marketed as containing CBD, but in reality contain little or none.[72][147] Some companies marketing CBD-infused food products with claims that are similar to the effects of prescription drugs have received warning letters from the Food and Drug Administration for making unsubstantiated health claims.[72][148] In February 2019, the New York City Department of Health announced plans to fine restaurants that sell food or drinks containing CBD, beginning in October 2019.[149]

Sports

Cannabidiol has been used by professional and amateur athletes across disciplines and countries, with the World Anti-Doping Agency removing CBD from its banned substances list. The United States Anti-Doping Agency and United Kingdom-Anti-Doping Agency do not have anti-CBD policies, with the latter stating that, "CBD is not currently listed on the World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List. As a result, it is permitted to use in sport, though the intended benefits are unclear and not backed by clinical evidence.. All other cannabinoids (including but not limited to cannabis, hashish, marijuana, and THC) are prohibited in-competition. The intention of the regulations is to prohibit cannabinoids that activate the same receptors in the brain as activated by THC."[150][151] In 2019, the cannabis manufacturer, Canopy Growth, acquired majority ownership of BioSteel Sports Nutrition, which is developing CBD products under endorsement by numerous professional athletes.[152] The National Hockey League Alumni Association began a project with Canopy Growth to determine if CBD or other cannabis products might improve neurological symptoms and quality of life in head-injured players.[152] Numerous professional athletes use CBD, primarily for treating pain.[152][153][154]

Research

As of 2019, there was limited high-quality evidence for cannabidiol having a neurological effect in humans.[14][15][26][155]

Other animals

Research

The number of research projects and scientific publications on cannabidiol and other cannabinoids in pets has surged in the late 2010s.

As of December 2020, there are no hemp-derived, cannabinoid-rich registered veterinary medicinal products in any of the major regions (see Legal status across countries).

In the USA and other territories there are, however, numerous veterinary nutraceutical products available OTC. The lack of clarity in the regulations governing veterinary hemp food supplements allows for products of questionable quality to flood the market,[141][156] which may pose a risk to the wellbeing of pets and owners.

To understand better the benefits of CBD and associated compounds for the quality of life of animals, companies specialized in CBD products for animals have been funding research projects.[157][158][159][160][161][162][163][164][165][166]

CBD's ability to help regulate the endocannabinoid system[167][168][169] and reduce the release of excitatory neurotransmitters could result in a retrograde inhibitory signal that lessens chronic pain responses. Studies in dogs with chronic pain associated with osteoarthritis showed an increase in level of activity in animals receiving CBD-rich food supplements.[165][158][162][160]

Epilepsy

From the results seen in humans with drugs such as Epidiolex and Sativex in scientific studies and reviews,[170] it could be expected that CBD-based products would be helpful to manage seizures in dogs. However, despite the numerous case reports presented by veterinary neurologists supporting the benefits of CBD as adjunctive therapy, as of December 2020, published controlled studies have not shown a statistically significant decrease in the number of seizures across the groups receiving CBD.[157][161] Further research in this area is required before any clear conclusion can be drawn.

Pharmacokinetics

The oral bioavailability of CBD varies greatly across species and it is linked to the presentation and the time of administration.[166][163][171] A 24-hour kinetic examination in dogs showed that the absorption of the cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) does occur, and that this molecule is absorbed least twice as well as CBD post oral ingestion.[166][163][172]

It was found that the major metabolites of CBD in humans (7-OH-CBD and 7-COOH-CBD) are not prevalent in dogs, while 6-OH-CBD was found to be the primary metabolite in dogs receiving a CBD-enriched cannabis-derived herbal extract,[173] suggesting that canine and human CBD metabolic route might be somewhat different.[171]

Safety

Increases in Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) have been reported in various canine studies.[165][166][162] A 39-week study in dogs evaluating doses of 0, 10, 50, and 100 mg of CBD/kg reported an increase of up to 8x in the ALP in the 100 mg/kg group, and of up to 1.5x in Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) in the 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg groups. However, there were no clinical signs associated with these results.[174]
